Any suggestions to get it eating or just more time.

I've been very lucky getting non eaters to go after live blackworms. They are messy and pollute the water but very few fish (other then my imperator, who is scared of everything) can resist the wriggling.
The other go to food which you've tried is the black mussels you can buy at the global foods in woodbridge (since you're down in fburg).
The other thing is that small regals are somewhat timid. If you've got other boisterous fish, it may not eat simply out of fear. If you've got the ability to qt, you may want to consider it for a short time, if for no reason then to let the fish eat in peace.
